Personal profile
Administrative Roles
I am the Undergraduate Talent Lead and Programme Director for Data-Driven Innovation in Health and Social Care. Together with a team of colleagues, we are working on upskilling students and professionals in data science, to enable them to use data more effectively for improving the health and wellbeing of citizens.
Teaching
I lead the Y2 Research and Evidence Based Medicine course for medical students and I am the programme director for a BMedSci in Data Science for Healthcare (currently in preparation). I also contribute to teaching on the MSc in Data Science for Health and Social Care.
Research Interests
My research focuses on three main topics:
- How can psychology be used to help people behave in healthier ways, and especially to eat healthier?
- What characteristics of the self and identity make people happier and healthier?
- What can we as educators do to support students to learn more effectively and become more engaged in the learning community?
